Cannons powered by pneumatic pressure (compressed gas) using a valve or other release.

It's For a Co-ax under over you can use it if you want to but could you give me the credit for the Idea?

You can tell how awesome a cannon is by the pressure used.

Could it be breech-loaded?
If not, I find that a "Con". :roll:

EDIT: I just dreamed up a way to breech load it: Co-Ax with a short part of barrel in front of valve exposed. The chamber would need to bend around to the back of the valve though. Cool. I'll give you credit for the thought, If I use it Sticky_Tape. Cool. 8)

I guess you get a little credit, but the general concept has been thought of before...by me for one. I didn't build anything based on it because of the added complexity and extra joints for not much gain. Like Carlman said, just using a larger "air" pipe will do the same thing. I had also tossed about Thunderlord's idea of building in a breech loading system in the "crook" area.

It's essentially a coax with a "bonus room" added on to hold a little more air.

This idea has been around for a long time, the combined under-over-coaxial, so I'm afraid you can't really claim any credit for it.

Even I've thought about doing it, although I've never bothered to.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

it would look like a conventional cannon, but kinda stupid with the short stub protuding out.

It has been done before, by someone on a rogue website though. I don't think it was ever posted on Spudfiles or Spudtech, but members know about it.


Edit: Here's one of my very first designs dated 9th October 2006.
Like you, I thought of it before seeing the cannon where someone actually did it, after that I never got round to making it.

Though the original drawing is over 1mb, so I copied it and made it smaller, so the date would be today, not two years ago.

Oh and don't ask me what's up with the middle part, I have no idea what I was thinking back then when I first started spudding properly.

Same idea, just that the 'extra chamber' starts at the piston housing with a 'tee' and could resemble a normal barrel sealer

it's like reinventing the wheel... no offence but it's not original enough for you to say that you invented that.. lots of people thought about it, plus it combines all drawbacks of coaxial and over-under designs...
